Chapter 198: Crossing the River

Seeing this, Zu Zhong hurriedly knocked on the door of Yuyang and Chen Rugui again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Have you seen Jian Ziqing?"

Hearing Zu Zhong say this, both of them shook their heads, indicating that they had not seen Jian Ziqing.

"I knocked on the door for a long time, and there was no response from inside." Zu Zhong said to the two.

"Why don't I go in and have a look?" Chen Rugui proposed.

At the moment, the door is locked, and if you want to get in, you have to go downstairs to find someone to get a spare key. However, Zu Zhong did not intend to do this, and nodded in response to Chen Rugui's proposal.

Subsequently, Chen Rugui went directly through the wall into Jian Ziqing's room and left. Zu Zhong and Yuyang waited outside for a while, and Chen Rugui came out.

"How?" Zu Zhong hurriedly asked.

Chen Rugui shook his head and said, "I searched all the corners, and the people were not inside. ”

Hearing Chen Rugui say this, the ancestral center was even more worried, how could this Jian Ziqing suddenly disappear?

"Don't worry too much, with that girl's strength, nothing will happen." Yuyang opened his mouth at this time to comfort Zu Zhong.

In this regard, Zu Zhong nodded, feeling that there was some truth, maybe she was just going out for a walk.

Thinking of this, Zu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, and then glanced at the time, it was almost twelve o'clock, and it was time to go.

After talking to the two, Zuzhong picked up the cloth bag, and the three of them set off together, preparing to sneak into the mountain temple at night.

Out of the hotel, Zu Zhong and his party came to the entrance of the village, breaking through the blockade from the front, it would definitely not work, Zu Zhong decided to go around the foot of the village and sneak in.

I have to say that the road at the foot of the mountain is really difficult to walk, and it is paved with a layer of gravel, and if you step on it, there will be a loud "rustle" sound.

If you want to walk from here, the movement will definitely be discovered, Zuzhong's eyes narrowed slightly, it seems that these villagers have made enough preparations to prevent people from going up the mountain.

"Is there another way up the mountain?" Zu Zhong asked Yuyang, because Yuyang had just floated to survey the terrain before returning.

"I just looked at it again, there are other roads, you have to go around several kilometers to another place up the mountain, and from that side, you have to walk a few miles to reach the temple of that mountain, and we don't know how difficult that road is." Yuyang said.

"It's too time-consuming, isn't there another short road?" As soon as Zu Zhong heard that it was so far away, he denied this path on the spot.

"Yes, but it's very difficult to walk." Yuyang nodded and said.

"What's the hard way to go?" Hearing Yuyang say this, Zu Zhong was a little curious.

"There is a river on the east side of the village, I don't know if you remember, you can go up the mountain by wading through the river from there, but I just saw it, the water is very fast, and it is very difficult." Yuyang said, revealing a dilemma, "And for now, I don't know the depth of the water, and I can't take risks easily." ”

"So, it's safest to take a long detour?" Chen Rugui asked.

"For now, yes." Yuyang nodded, agreeing with Chen Rugui's statement.

"No, we don't have that much time to waste." Zu Zhong directly vetoed it.

"That can't be helped." Hearing Zu Zhong say this, Yuyang spread his hands helplessly.

"Anyway, you can't waste time, let's go, let's go over there and have a look first." Zu Zhong said categorically.

In this regard, Yuyang and Chen Rugui did not stop much, since Zu Zhong decided so, then let him be, anyway, the two of them could float over directly with the body of a ghost.

Under the leadership of Yuyang, the group came to the east of the village in the dark, and in the distance, they heard the sound of water flowing.

Looking at it, the river is about fifteen meters, but the width is not wide, that is, the water flow is extremely fast, and I don't know the depth of the water, if you rush down the river, no one can guarantee their own safety.

At this time, Zuzhong picked up a stone by the river and threw it towards the river, only to hear a "bang", and it was washed away by the current without even making a ripple.

This impact, not to mention going on, even looking at it from the shore is very frightening.

"Look, how can this go down?" Seeing this, Chen Rugui opened her mouth and said.

Zu Zhong kept a calm face, twisted his brows and did not speak.

"Find a bamboo pole to test the depth of the water." Zu Zhong thought for a while and said in a low voice.

But there is no bamboo forest at all, where can I find bamboo poles?

After looking around, they were also lucky, and soon found that there seemed to be a flat pole inserted in the farmland by the river, and it was estimated which villager had landed here.

Thinking of this, Zuzhong didn't care so much, and hurriedly went over and picked up the flat burden, the length of the flat burden was about one meter five, and it also reached the neck of the ancestor.

Without further ado, Zu Zhong took the flat pole and came to the bank of the river again, and carefully moved forward, Zu Zhong squatted down and stretched the flat pole into the river and poked it.

I have to say that this water flow is really breathing, if it weren't for Zuzhong's quick reaction, he held the end of the flat pole stiffly, and estimated that the flat pole would have been washed away.

The pole poked down, but did not stop, and soon the whole pole was flooded by the river.

Seeing this, Zu Zhong's face sank, and at the same time, he was a little surprised, how deep is this river?

Fortunately, there was still a distance of about ten centimeters before the river swallowed the flat tan, and the sinking of the flat tan suddenly stopped in shock.

In this regard, Zu Zhong was happy, grabbed the end of the flat shoulder tightly, raised his hand and continued to probe on the side, and found that it was all like this, Zu Zhong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the bottom of the river is not deep, as long as you are careful, there should be no major problems. Immediately, Zu Zhong did not hesitate too much and decided to go into the water and slowly cross the river.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Yuyang obviously disagreed.

Zu Zhong nodded, with an unwavering attitude.

Seeing Zuzhong's insistence, Yuyang could only sigh and decided to sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.

Chen Rugui stood aside, she knew that she couldn't stop Zuzhong, so she didn't open her mouth to persuade her, but her face was full of worry.

Without too much nonsense, Zu Zhong stretched out his legs and fell into the river, and this time he was almost washed away by the current, but fortunately, Zu Zhong was strong and stabilized.

Since Yuyang and Chen Rugui were souls at this time, they floated directly from the river to the other bank, and quietly waited for the ancestor to come over on that side.

The river flooded the chest of the ancestor, and the cloth bag he carried was thrown to the opposite bank by him vigorously in advance, and was carried by Chen Rugui around his waist.

Zu Zhong moved forward slowly, and without taking a step, he tried several times with the flat pole in his hand to make sure that it was safe before he went.

Not long after, it was soon in the middle of the river.

Zu Zhong exhaled, and half of it was still able to step over, it seemed that it was really a blessing from heaven.

Without staying too long, Zu Zhong was ready to take a step, moving the flat pole in his hand to probe forward, and what Zu was most worried about happened.
